Yesterday it became known about the death of Mauro Forghieri, the designer and technical director of Ferrari, with the team from Maranello winning the constructors’ championship seven times.
The son of Enzo Ferrari Piero remembered the period of their joint work …
Piero Ferrari: “When I joined the company in 1965, I shared an office with Cavalier Ghiberti, Ferrari’s first employee, and Mauro Forghieri, who had been hired a few years earlier, worked in the next office. We were ten years and one window apart.
We saw each other every day. Forghieri was energetic and passionate in everything he did. He was optimistic and I remember many of the endless meetings in the Gestione Sportiva, which started in the evening and lasted almost into the morning, I mediated between him and my father.
His father appreciated his unstoppability and understood that any mistakes are only due to trying to do something better and look beyond.
We have lost part of our history, a man who has given a lot to Ferrari and the racing world in general.”
